Back at the table.
Michelle was amazed at how Sivendy blew off the top gals on campus. Sivendy looks at the group and apologizes, "Sorry about that everyone. It's a lot to deal with." Michelle smiles, "People just want to rub elbows with you, it can get annoying."
Sivendy smiles, "Have you experienced it much?" Michelle chuckles, "Yeah, though I'm not amongst the wealthy in this school. I do know how it feels to be perceived as rich and have others trying to suck up to you."
Lous raises a brow at Michelle, "Don't your parent own a pharmacy?" Michelle shrugs, "A pharmacy that monopolized an entire region." Lous nods his head and drinks from his cup.
Hector tries to compose himself, "So uhhh, Sivendy, that's a unique name." Sivendy sighs, "My mother had many kids and was just lazy naming us." Hector is taken aback, "How many kids?" Sivendy looks into Hector's eyes and her thoughts, "About 300." Then Sivendy speaks, "7 children." Hector is amazed, "Wow 7? That must be tough." Sivendy shakes her head, "Nope, she just puts the elders in charge of the young. She had a lot to deal with, a lot."
Michelle sighs, "You didn't get to spend much time with her. You must miss her." Sivendy smiles and her thoughts, "Not really since I can meet her in the Nexusphere, but sure." Hector taps his laps, "So, uhh, you're new to the school…..Do you want to be friends?" Sivendy looks at him and smiles, "I'd love that." A screen appears before Hector with music. Hector quickly looks at the screen which only him should see. What he failed to see was…..Sivendy was looking at his screen with a small grin.

Hector is surprised and his thoughts to Bot, "Did you have to say confetti?" Bot replies, [Don't you want to celebrate after completing a mission?] Hector sighs, "Well yeah bu-" Michelle speaks, "Well, Hello Hector!" Hector snaps quickly looking at Michelle and she continues, "Pretty rude to just ignore someone after becoming friends. Don't you think?"
Hector quickly looks to Sivendy completely missing that she was staring at his screen, "I'm so sorry, I just got distracted by something on my plate." Louis freezes, "Wait, you were gonna eat that?" Hector looks at his plate then at Lous and Hector is surprised, "Seriously Lou, you ate my lunch?" Louis shrugs, "Hey man, it was getting cold and I was just putting it to good use."
Hector sighs, "Yeah, I'll get another meal." He gets up and heads to get food. Michelle looks at Louis and Louis shrugs speaking, "What?" Michelle shakes her head.
Hector joins them and they keep chatting for a while before heading back to class. Hector is waiting silently with his eyes closed. Nothing has happened after Hector completed his first mission. He looks frustrated, the he shouts in his mind, "HEY BOT!!! DON'T I GET ANOTHER MISSION OR WHAT?!"
Bot replies in his mind [Oh, uhhh, a moment.]
NOTICE: PERSPECTIVE SWITCH TO SIVENDY
Sivendy is in her class gazing out the window, she also has a free period. A red screen appears before her and Bot appears and bows, [My Lord Sivendy, your agent asks for a mission.]
Sivendy raises a brow looking at Bot and her thoughts to Bot, "This world's energy density is close to zero. Even if I make monsters appear and he fights them...he'll probably die." Sivendy grabs her hair in frustration and her thoughts, "What can I do?! Cause an apocalyptic event? Monster tides? This world won't survive either….." She gets a thought then looks at Bot, "Which path did he choose again?"
Bot bows in the image speaking, [Path of Wealth]. Sivendy rubs her chin and her thoughts, "...I have no idea what to do with that. Who's idea was it to add the Paths anyway?" She groans on her chair then keeps gazing out the window, "What about Ergos Xenia? Time can be dilated and he'll train there. Before he comes back to this world, I strip him of all his level so he doesn't die from energy leakage. I could make up some crap about being able to fight in the path of wealth. Not like he can refuse anyway."
Sivendy smiles and speaks to Bot, "His next mission, Hector will be teleported to the 2nd universe's dungeon, Ergos Xenia. His goal, to clear the floor." Bot stares blanky at Sivendy and speaks, [My Lord, he won't last a minute in that place.] Sivendy waves her hand, "Don't worry, I'll create a practice zone and dilate time. An hour here will be day there for him. He might get to meet other agents from other universes."
Bot bows and the screen before Sivendy vanishes. Sivendy leans back into her chair and closes her eyes. Her thoughts, "Connecting to Nexusphere." Sparks of thin light appear above Sivendy and shoots into the sky, no one noticed it.
NOTICE: PERSPECTIVE SWITCH TO HECTOR
Bot appears before Hector who's been waiting the entire time.

Hector looks at the screen in a daze, "uhhhh, there's Titan in it's name...right?" Bot appears speaking [Parvus Titanus (Godzilla Familia Domus) an artificial monster created by ********* for ******** as a ******** for new ******** with stagnation.
Hector shakes his head to snap out of a daze, "Why are some words covered?" Bot speaks, [Because it's not important data. Focus on mission.]
NOTICE: PERSPECTIVE SWITCH TO SIVENDY
[AU:INFO
Nexusphere: A Data world from the universe Sivendy came from that links everyone with access. It's a continent of the mind. Previously Azurians could store their souls there incase one faces fatal injuries and recreate a new body if recovery is impossible. But now, only Xenos like Sivendy of the Azurian race can store their souls there.
Azurian: A subrace of humans from the old universe Created by Nytri Elnora Alcore. This race of humans was the first to resist the invaders and defeated them. Other races rallied behind them aimed at the complete annihilation of all life outside the earth. They succeeded.
Ergos Xenia: An artificial dungeon created by the Xenos to train agents(Like Hector) in a particular universe that received the SSTM DC prior to Hector's universe. It has 120 floors and each boss is a Xeno.
AU: So there's the 1st universe, 2nd universe and 3rd universe which is Hector's.
